Groups are given 1/2 hour for their packed lunches. We have a large class sized picnic area and an indoor room for storing bags or eating lunch if the weather is inclement.

Time is allowed in the shop, but if you prefer, goody bags can be made for any amount, but £2.50 is common. These include a pencil, pen, ruler, sharpener, Killhope badge and a small toy to keep you amused on the trip home (prior notice is required).
